local-user-edit

Usage

avcli local-user-edit user [--username name] [--realname name] [--email address] [--password password] [--new-password password] [--local-groups groups] [--permissions permission-types] user-name-or-sid

Description

The local-user-edit command edits an existing user. If you do not give the --password option, the password is not changed. If you give the --password option, the command prompts the user twice to verify that the password was entered correctly. Only users with the role Administrator (the group admin) can execute this command. Users with the role Platform Admin (the group platform_admin) or Read Only (the group read-only) cannot execute this command.

Options

--username name The user name to assign.
--password password Boolean flag that indicates whether the user should be prompted for a new password.
--new-password password Specify the password as a command-line option instead of being prompted in the same way as --password.
--realname name The user's real name.
--email address The user's email address.
--local-groups groups Local groups for the user to join, in the form of a comma-separated list.
--permissions permission-types Local user permissions, in the form of a comma-separated list.
group-name-or-sid The name or security ID.
